Newport – Cardiff cup semi-final team news

Cardiff travel to Sardis Rd to play Newport for the fourth time this season in the Indigo Premiership Cup Semi-final.

This will be the second meeting in as many weeks for the old enemies but this time there is a final at stake. “this is an opportunity to play at the Principality Stadium in a showpiece final” said Head Coach Steve Law “the players shouldn’t need much more motivation than that. But we feel we let ourselves down at Rodney Parade two weeks ago and we want an opportunity to put that right”
